Chapter 111
Peter Dunce spent an extra twenty minutes in front of his mirror, dressing up in his absolute most expensive suit, slicking back his hair with gel, and spraying a bit too much cologne. After all, he had to impress the gorgeous Julia Sterling today.He had met her through a mutual friend at a high-end lounge some months ago. While foolishly trying to impress her under the heavy influence of alcohol, Peter had accidentally lied and said that he was a prominent trustee of the hospital board! But the cold truth was that he was just a regular floor manager overseeing the top five floors. At the time, he thought he would never see her again, so the lie didn't seem to matter.But when she called him out of the blue this morning asking for a massive favor, Peter felt like his lucky stars were finally shining brightly! If she was personally coming to him for help, and if he used his internal hospital contacts the right way to kick out whatever unwanted patient she wanted gone, she would feel
Chapter 110
Harry felt a tight knot form in his chest as he looked at his mother's pale, panicked face. He got awkward at first, struggling to find the right words to explain all this drama that had just happened. At the end, he realised he simply couldn't hide the truth. "Mom... me and Julia have decided to separate…” Harry said softly, his voice low and careful. "We filed the official divorce papers today. I didn't tell you earlier because... because I didn't want to stress you out while you were recovering from your surgery." Eleanor suddenly panicked, her eyes widening in shock as her shallow breath hitched in her throat. "What?! Why, Harry? Why a sudden divorce?!" She stammered out, her thin fingers clutching his hand tightly. "Didn't you guys love each other so much? Why on earth has this happened all of a sudden?!" Harry felt a wave of guilt washing over his entire soul. Deep down, he felt like it was all his fault. For three years, he had lied to his mother, constantly reassu
Chapter 109
Harry arrived within ten short minutes of Ginny's frantic call, stepping straight into the luxury VVIP ward with a strange, icy calm that immediately seemed to unsettle the whole room far more than any amount of loud shouting could have ever done. His long, steady strides carried him past the doorway, his dark green eyes sweeping over the arrogant faces standing around his mother's bed with an unshakable, dangerous stillness. Ginny immediately stepped forward to his side, her voice low and shaking as she quickly told him what all had happened in the last twenty minutes—how Rosalie and Kevin had barged in screaming, demanding his sick mother be thrown out onto the street, and how Julia and Derek were claiming Harry was just a penniless fraud using her stolen money. Manager Gong, holding his digital tablet tightly against his suit jacket, adjusted his wire-rimmed glasses and cleared his throat. He looked at Harry with an apologetic, respectful expression, trying his absolute best to
Chapter 108
Late that night, Harry had just settled into his bed, staring up at the dark ceiling while his mind raced. He was mentally rearranging his entire schedule for the next morning. He hadn't managed to visit his mother at all today, and he felt a heavy pang of guilt twisting in his chest, and he was already planning to head out at sunrise to spend the entire morning at the hospital by her bedside to make up for his absence. His phone began to vibrate wildly on the nightstand before he could even close his eyes to fall asleep. Harry reached out and picked it up, frowning at the unknown number flashing across the screen. The moment he pressed the green button and raised the phone to his ear, Nurse Ginny's voice filled the quiet bedroom, tight with barely contained urgency and deep panic. "Mr. Kipling — I'm so sorry to call you so late at night, but you need to come to the hospital right now!" Harry didn't even ask a single question. He threw off his blankets, threw on his jacket, an
Chapter 107
Back at the Sterling residence, the heavy atmosphere inside the living room felt completely suffocating.Julia had just finished recounting the entire embarrassing disaster at the restaurant to her mother and brother—every single agonizing detail. She paced across the plush rug, her voice shaking with rage as she described the bitter public confrontation with Priscilla, her father Darius Levine’s ruthless public dressing-down in front of high society, the terrifying moment with the steak knife, and their humiliating removal by security guards right out the front doors.When her furious rant finally came to an end, the silence that followed in the massive room had sharp, terrifying teeth in it."So let me understand this situation correctly," Rosalie said, her arms crossed tight over her chest as her voice began climbing in pitch with every single word she uttered. Her face was twisted into a mask of pure, bitter disbelief. "He's the one who should be utterly humiliated in public! H

"I'll walk you out," Harry offered, pushing his chair back and looking down at her with genuine concern in his eyes. She managed a small, tired smile, shaking her head gently as she gathered her purse. "Thank you for tonight, Harry. Really. But there's no need to walk me out into the cold, my car is just right in the valet parking, remember?" She gave him a polite nod and made her way out toward the lobby, her high heels clicking softly against the marble floor. But in reality, as soon as she reached the host stand near the entrance, she quietly signalled the valet driver to just take her car straight back home without her. She was planning to walk alone through the rain tonight. She had never, in her wildest dreams, imagined this horrific turn of events after their decades of close friendship. Losing Julia in such a loud, violent, and bitter way had broken her heart into a thousand sharp pieces. The sheer betrayal, the ugly truth her father had laid bare, and the realization th
